For someone who has lived almost their entire life on the bottom tip of Africa, surrounded by a buttocks-numbing icy ocean on the one side and a flat rock that had your back on the other, coming to America was an assault on the senses. Living in Cape Town you are spoiled by all […]

Deep into October and I’ve yet to write a word for DearSusan. Shame on me. It’s hard to write when you’re having fun. Me ’n Mrs P both have birthdays in October and in recent years, have chosen to spend them both in Singapore. That’s two weeks – more than most visitors spend there in […]
